Put some AT 205 in it and see if that helps. The stuff really works, I've used it on my own car to stop a manual trans leak.
thanks! I'll check it out
Oil pans rust out and so can a converter Good luck. And yes powerglides are noted for draining down and leaking when parked
thanks
Nice video; I have a 64 Greenbrier 110 P/G & it has never leaked, But my 67 is totally different story, & it didn't start leaking till I put a finned pan on the 1st one was slightly warped ( pan ) so I sent it back, But it still has the leak, But I don't know when I'm going to get back into it as of right now I have a all the parts to fix on the shelf to fix it. I use to own a 60 700 4 door with the P/G & it never leaked as well. Love your garage set up it does make the job allot easier. I have no thoughts on what could be causing the leak still on your 64, & I read your replies to a few comments; I was thinking that the seal hasn't soften up enough, But you've driven it a couple of hundred miles so the seal should be broke in. Thanks again for the video, & content.
Thanks for watching, and I'm glad you're enjoying the videos. I have about 1000 miles on it now, and it leaks very little when it sits overnight. I am considering it acceptable. Before this video, it would soak the entire back of the car in trans fluid. Overall, it's a win.
@@SlowCarFix I hope when I get back into the 67 that I get the same results I'd be very happy with those results as well.
We have found a hairline Crack on torque converter hubs before. Some are almost impossible to see with the naked eye.
@jamestribitt5658 that's a thought for sure. So far it leaves a drop the size of a quarter overnight and I've now put a few hundred miles on it. I'll continue to monitor, but if it comes apart, that converter will not go back in.
well u could drive the Porsche and sell me the Corvair lol, my harley already leaks, so whats 1 more oil spot?
Get out your wallet.
